The fact that you're describing a ref as notorious more than 0 times is proof that he shouldn't be reffing this game.

Mike_LowELL:Anyone else feel like the Heat would be up in this series if they had scored more points than the Spurs in either of the other two games?

John Madden does basketball now?

com'on mike, you can do better...try something involving Ray Allen being overrated without Denzel Washington coaching him on or how Chris Bosh not being a first-ballot hall-of-famer is a travesty and an insult to the PF position.

In one of my fever dreams, Joey Crawford, Angel Hernandez and Ed Hochuli joined forces to fight crime.. sorta like a referee ProStars.

personally, if you are known as a referee, that should raise ten red flags right there. Referees should be seen and not heard unless they blow the whistle; and if the public starts to know them by name, bye-bye

think about it, how many ref's/umpires do you know the names of in other sports?

Sorry, but I've only been watching basketball since Game 2 of the Finals. I don't know anything about those obscure indie basketball players.

I think the Heat will win after a loss like they always seem to do, but I am getting this feeling that the Spurs steal another game in Miami tonight. The Heat have been helped out a ton by Lewis so far, and I don't think that continues tonight. So unless Mario, Battier or Cole step up for 15ish points tonight, I think the Heat will really struggle.

TheManofPA:Countdown time. This show has made me like Sage Steele more than I used to.

I really like Sage. Simmons and Jalen are ok, I like their podcasts they do but sometimes it doesn't translate as well onto a pregame or halftime show. Collins is better than Magic "I think the Lakers will beat the Spurs in the first round last year", but he could be replaced and I wouldn't mind.

no one is expecting the spurs to be unconscious the first half tonight. So I am expecting more of a grinder match, which still gives the spurs and deep bench a favorable chance.

I really like Collins, but I don't think he meshes well with the others. That said, I think I'd dump Simmons and Rose before Collins. I like Simmons, but just think that he's better when he gets more than 30 second blurbs at a time.
